That reason sometimes dis- closes some very interesting and roman- tic facts; but, of course, most of the letters are stopped for the business houses about town. When we asked the red faced Niobe what her reason was, she boohooed, ‘Me an my man had some troubles, an I wrote to my fader for moneys to go home, but my man an me have made up, an I would uot have that letter go for a t’ousand dol- lar.’ We got that letter for her.

The open envelope was so inviting a place for the tickets that she thought she would carry them there, but just as soon as she saw a let- ter box it was like a red rag to a bull. She sealed the envelope and posted it,
